[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Loggik:
Didn't realize that you weren't the OP. Regardless, I was referring to you.

Anyway, this is a more serious case than I thought. Have you used the AIO Captivate Tool? If so, did you install the LibUSB drivers? Those will disable Odin from working (I'm probably going to PM Bay_wolf sometime soon about that...).

Do get everything working again:

Plug the phone in while it's in Download mode. Open the start menu, right click on "Computer", and click "Manage". In the left sidebar, select "Device Manager".

There will be a dropdown labeled "LibUSB Devices" or something with the word libusb in it. Find that dropdown, right click the Samsung USB Device or whatever it's called and select "Update Driver Software...". Then select "Search automatically for updated driver software."

An alternative is to just use the "Flash to Stock" option in the AIO tool. This and the above is assuming that you had used the AIO Tool and installed the LibUSB drivers previously. If you have not, then you may have to try and re-install the Samsung drivers. If that doesn't work, ask to borrow a friend's computer for now to flash back to stock, because this happened to me before and I didn't know how to fix it, but I was about to re-install Windows anyway so I never figured it out.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niderium:
I finally managed to turn my phone on last nigh by doing the following:

1.Open Odin

2.Get in download mode (it took me many tries but finally I made it)

3.Disconnect phone

4.Reconnect phone

5.Choose the PIT file

6.Uncheck Auto Reboot

7.Hit Start

After that I took out the battery put it back again and power up.the phone will boot but not show the main screen it will only vibrate!then i used the AIO pack to put it back in recovery mode and i reinstalled the Custom Firmware I was using. Now is on and working again!I really dont know now if I can flash back to stock!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leo5111:
did you use thee pitfile came with odin in the all in one or did you select another pitfile if you used a differnt pitfile then comes with odin 1.00 that might be my issue
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niderium:
No no I dont use this on I use one I had on my PC.

I think the problem is a write protection as I can see when i connect the phone it displays a CDROM drive when I click on it, opens ok but I cant write anything on the phone.and every time I try to use ODIN to flash to stock it stays in DO NOT TURN OFF THE TARGET and nothing happens!

Any ideas on how to get back to stock firmware?

Is There A Way To Implement This Or Port It For The Nexus S? I Know Our Phone Doesnt Have The Reader On The Phone But Is It Possible To Substitute It With Something Else That Only We Can Unlock Our Phones With. I Saw The Video Earlier And Was Quite Impressed. What Do You Guys Think?

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Blu3D:
Having a fingerprint scanner on a cellphone is just as stupid as having it on a computer, it's nothing but a security hazard, your fingerprints will be smeared all over your device and/or keyboard and it will be much easier to bypass than an ordinary password.

Now, apart from that, sure it'd be nice to show off with. But there's nothing that can do anything like it with the NS. One thing I did see though was using an NFC-card as a "key" for your phone.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] CB620:
That's your opinion but there is no way of it smearing on the atrix as you can see in the video. You smear more when you type on the nexus.

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] kenvan19:
I tend to agree with the opinion that Biometrics on a phone are just a little over the top and could lead to some problems. The idea that your print would be smeared all over the device, however, is just ludacris. The issues I see arising would be, for example, disabling the phone from being returned to you. Just as it prevents people who would use their phones maliciously it prevents people from trying to find the owner of a found device. I once worked at a movie theater and often we returned found cell phones by calling people on their speed dial and asking whomever picked up to inform the person whose number appeared on their caller id that there phone had been found.

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Mr.Clark:
Just a question, but given that the camera can also double up as a barcode reader, wouldn't it theoretically be possible for it to be able to take a good enough quality image of a finger so that it could determine it's uniqueness and therefore identity?

I'm not saying it's a reasonable security mechanism, but it would be pretty cool if it could be done...
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] robstunner:
The Atrix takes and records both your left and right index finger 3-8 times. So unless your a double amputee....
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] CB620:
Yeah it would be a good idea
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] CB620:
True. But its just a idea.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] kenvan19:
I'm sorry but what does that have to do with other people being able to use your phone? The other issue would be in situations like my wife and I have; we have the same phone and often times I take her phone for the day in order to fix issues on her phone but if her phone required her fingerprint to unlock I couldn't do that. Or another example; I usually drive when we go places but most of our friends text/call me about plans and I often get emails and texts about work while we're driving and in both of these cases, I usually need to respond as soon as possible if not immediately. If my phone required my fingerprint to unlock it would add a very unnecessary step to the process of having her respond to these messages.

I'm not saying there are no uses for a fingerprint scanner; for example if you have a lot of sensitive information on your phone like a lawyer or a government official or a doctor or any other number of professions might then requiring your fingerprint to unlock makes sense. But for an average Joe user like me or many other users it just seems like a lot of cloak and dagger to protect my score in Paper Toss lol

Atrix requires a PIN in addition to both index fingers. So as long as you knew your wifes passcode you would be fine.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] playpolo4life:
So I was playing with my friend's stock droid 2 and saw that in the settings menu he had a battery manager option (app?). Is that a part of Blur or can it be installed onto our phones too?

The reason I ask is because it had some pretty sweet options to conserve battery automatically by just toggling some options.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wildstang83:
I think I saw the same thing you saw. I think its built into the froyo rom. I saw it on my friends DX.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I don't think that's a stock Froyo option; otherwise we would have seen that in at least some of the Froyo ROMs for the Eris, so I would assume that's a Blur thing and impossible to put it on anything without Blur, without reinventing it from near scratch.

[HD7 General] Hab Fan:
I have an HD7 from T-Mobile supplied to me by my company for testing. I reside in Canada and would like to use this phone with my Bell Mobility account so I have successfully unlocked the HD7 based on the instructions provided to me from T-Mobile. I worked with Bell on getting the phone on the network and no matter what the technician did the phone always showed "No Service".

According to the Bell Website it says:

"Your device must be compatible - it must be HSPA (or UMTS) and 850 MHz and 1900 MHz compatible."

The T-Mobile specs shows the following:

"850 MHz;900 MHz;1800 MHz;1900 MHz;UMTS: Band I (2100);UMTS: Band IV (1700/2100)"

The odd thing I find is that Bell Mobility released the HTC HD7 as one of their products a couple of weeks ago. So why wouldn't this phone just work on their network? Currently using it with my T-Mobile SIM it roams on the Rogers network so I assume that clearly states that the phone whould work with a Rogers SIM card, useless for me.

Is there anyway to get this phone to work with the Bell network? Would a custom ROM help in this situation?

Thanks!
[HD7 General] tai4de2:
Huh. I would not expect "no service" I would expect that you get 2G service but definitely not 3G.

I have used my unlocked TMOUS HD7 abroad and got 2G service in places w/o 2100 UMTS (similar to your situation Canada).
[HD7 General] tfn:
http://www.htcimeiunlock.com/

you could try the above site to unlock your phone

they worked for me was on O2 uk and got unlock code within less then 10 mins..
[HD7 General] lynxz3:
It wont work, as bell doesnt have a 2G GSM network bell uses it old CDMA network for 2G service and EVDO Rev A, for 3G along side its newly released HSPA+ network which runs on the 850Mhz band. As such a Tmobile US HD7 wont work with Bell, it will work on Rogers on its 2G GSM network. For you to use any new devices on Bell's HSPA network they would have to be from the following Carriers Telstra(Australia), ATT(USA), Rogers(CAN), Telus(CAN). Note for Telus they will have to be newer HSPA+ devices.

However as a side note you can run your TMobile HD7 on the new carriers, such as Videotron, WIND Mobile, Moblicity. All three carries use advance wireless service (AWS) frequencies.

**BEFORE READING------I was running the official 2.2 Froyo for the I9000M****

Ok so this morning i wanted to play music on my SGS, i clicked a song that i usually play and today it said something along the lines of "phone doesnt support this type of file" so i powered off/on and when i did half my apps were missing, i didnt have market, or even youtube. I only had my camera and internet and random applications.

I went to settings>Applications and everything was still installed, just not showing up. I powered off, took out battery/sim and replaced them, turned it back on, and was stuck on an infinite boot logo loop -_-.

I got into recovery and decided to format my phone and then reboot....which didnt help. After that i went searching for a fix with Odin but couldnt get it to work.

Odin froze on me...Bricking my phone(bringing it to the picture of the phone trying to connect to the PC)

I CANT enter recovery mode but I CAN get into download mode

I really need help since im not too advanced with android

All help is appreciated and i thank you guys in advanced

PLEASE help me out i really dont want to send it into repair for 2 weeks +

I would like to know what are the best settings for the highest quality pictures, using the stock camera app, or another app such as camera 360, or vignette. Post the settings and the pics. Thank You.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shlongwoodian:
Pretty much stock settings, other than changing to a 16:9 aspect ratio and 'highest' resolution...

Here's a big ole pic of some tasty knots from Mellow Mushroom...

(I didn't re-size it or make any changes, so you could see the pic fresh from the microSD card)

I also use the 'Vintage Warm' effect a LOT, love it. I don't use Auto-flash though - it's either flash on or flash off for me.

Hope this helps!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kdunn1994:
U use auto focus, I heard it was better to leave that off.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shlongwoodian:
In my experience, having auto-focus OFF doesn't get me as sharp of pics, especially in low-light. With auto-focus, you do have to wait a second for it to lock-in, so if it's a "fast action" shot, you're not gonna get it using auto-focus. I'm more concerned with sharper looking images vs. fast-action though.

It's all personal preference. I can say that every time I take a pic and I'm with friends that have either iPhones or the Evo, they always look at my pics and point out how much better mine look vs. theirs. :)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kdunn1994:

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shlongwoodian:

Hi

You should be covered by paypal on Fake SD cards, open up a dispute item not as described, you will need to get a 3rd party to write a letter to paypal confirming the flash card is fake.
[Desire General] niko123456:
Been duped by this too (had never considered faking was possible). Paypal were entirely useless - either registered post it back to Hong Kong or have it checked by a 3rd party. For only $12 outlay I got more pleasure telling Paypal they were a bunch of pricks and demanded instructions on how to close my account.
[Desire General] *damo*:
I would tell them I want another one or at least a refund.
[Desire General] th3:
Run "SD Tools" on the phone. It should tell you the real manufacturer data including the model number, OEM and serial. You can check those online.

You're in the UK - two sales laws apply (at least) where for a new product, the seller must issue a return within the 'cooling off period', and they must describe the item properly, deliver something as described, without faults, fully working, in reasonably good condition and performance. Otherwise, they must replace with like-advertised or a complete refund of all the costs.
[Desire General] Haggis2009:
Contact Sandisk they may be able to help. I had the same problem with a fake Kingston memory card bought on eBay. I contacted Kingston and they asked for some scans of the card and the packaging. They sent me an email confirming it was not genuine. PayPal refused to accept this saying they wanted it on headed paper (What a bunch of *******). Contacted Kingston again and they emailed me a scanned letter by email which I faxed to PayPal, got a full refund but PayPal certainly didn't make it easy. No wonder there are so many fakes on eBay.
[Desire General] mrshiz:
Also, by British law you can't post it back (counterfeight goods) if PayPal say you have to.
[Desire General] niko123456:
The other thing I had was that eBay closed the account, admitting that the seller was a fraud but Paypal still demanded I return the item to him or I wouldn't get a refund.. they looked after the fraudulent seller more than the customer.
[Desire General] th3:
It's better to get law enforcement involved in this country ASAP. They have some better tools and powers in place. They can secure an immediate account freeze on all sides instantly including gaining access to every detail EBay and Paypal have of all the parties concerned. Having lost heavily in such processes with EBay and Paypal in the past, and moving on, I know they don't act as slow and held back with law enforcement.

[HTC Excalibur] tobbbie:
If you have used the built in encryption of windows mobile your old data are lost forever. The data are (to my knowledge) encrypted in a device-HW-key (+ probably user name) dependent encryption and cannot be read by any other device. Microsoft advises to copy the data from such a card via the device itself (AS connected) to a backup before upgrading.

You may(!) be lucky if you step back to the very same old OS with old same user name, but I doubt it.

A similar tool that encrypts your data like the one proposed will not help at all.

I think that not many are using the built in encryption, so knowledge is not so widely public in that regard.
